    It should be ||🍎(x) -🍌(x)| +|🍌(x) - 🍇(x)|| >=|🍎(x) -🍌(x) +🍌(x) - 🍇(x)| = |🍎(x) - 🍇(x)| I missed the abs that I added in the previous step.

    let me make the variables less annoying:

    ||x-y|+|y-z|| >= |x-y+y-z| = |x-z| we are getting rid of the abs around |x-y| and |y-z| so the 2 y’s can cancel out. We can do this because |x-y| >= x-y because |q| >= q
